#22 - Oh? A Response!
Today, I got an answer to the question I never asked.
He’s helpless too, it seems - he gets stuck in more meetings and planning than his actual work, so he often doesn’t have time to communicate. I did notice him trying his best to respond to me and others on our team promptly today, so that was nice.
Thanks, Mr. Hobbit. π

I was out on the swing earlier this evening with Mom and Lucy, in the backyard. There was a lovely cool breeze, and our garden looked even more lush and beautiful under the soft sunset sky.
In those quiet moments, I reflected for a bit.
First off, even I’ve been unfair on Mr. Hobbit and his team in my open letter… they can only do so much. We’re all working like cogs in a machine, after all. We all depend on each other to keep IT operations running smoothly, at the end of the day. I must remember this and learn to be more patient.
Second… I need to stop being so hard on myself. I do have just about as many good traits as bad ones. I may not be socially adept at times, but I do have my own way of connecting with people. I love hearing other people’s stories, empathizing with them, seeing how we’re all so unique and yet so alike.
Also, while I may be a little awkward about physical affection and all, I do feel love in almost every hug I give or receive with sincerity. I enjoy playing with my puppy and niece; and I’m thankful for having the ability to send healing energy to the people I care about, no matter how far apart we are. Anyway…
As I sat there on the swing earlier, I felt so happy and calm. I closed my eyes and could sense nature all around me. For a brief moment in time, I felt loved without needing to prove myself. And it felt good. ❤️
